Ken and Mary Okoroafor of The Humble Penny share a real life case study of how a could downsized their home to a cheaper but larger one and how they instead reinvested the difference to fund their retirement.
When you look at your mortgage, rent, car payments, or weekly food shop, it is easy to view those expenses strictly in pounds and pence. But every pound we spend ultimately comes from our income—and that income is earned by trading something irreplaceable: our time. In this episode of Money Matters on Premier Gospel, Ken and Mary Okoroafor (founders of The Humble Penny) explore a fundamental question: How much of your healthy working life are you spending to fund your current lifestyle?
Pastor Mike White, Senior Pastor of The Tab London, joined Premier Gospel to deliver an empowering message on embracing September as a "second start." Drawing from Ecclesiastes 7:8, he urged listeners to step into this new season by reviewing past experiences rather than repeating old mistakes, protecting their internal environment from anxiety and negative noise, and focusing on the opportunities that remain rather than past losses.
